"Roughly
half of the nation’s top 250 Republican donors have given money to Mr.
Walker in his
campaigns for Wisconsin governor, according to an Upshot analysis of Federal Election Commission records and state records. By comparison, 30 percent have given to Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, 20 percent to Senator Ted Cruz of Texas and 10 percent to Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey.
A
presidential campaign is a chance for candidates to introduce
themselves to top fund-raisers, and it’s possible that another candidate
will become the favorite of donors. But the data underscores the reason
that Mr. Walker appears at this early stage to be in the strongest
position of any candidate other than Mr. Bush.
